The 4th Week

The 4th week is such a crucial week. If you've started a workout program and have stuck to it, you should see your first big results after the 4th week. This is also when you should modify your workout program. Even if you are still seeing results or not, try something new in your routine this week. Change things up a bit. You will see faster and more dramatic results if you keep your workouts changing. Don't give yourself a chance to plateau.

If you run, try doing inclines. You can also change your speed throughout your run to simulate sprints and jogs. If you can put in biking or swimming or walking in your workouts. Remember to stretch each night. You don't need a yoga tape, just do some effective simple stretches. But do them each night.

You can also do different kinds of pushups and crunches. Google crunches and see what comes up. My friend just told me that he was able to purchase the P90X workout program on Ebay for $60. That's more than half price. This is a great workout program to do right from your own livingroom at your own pace.
